Dog Parks
People love their dogs. Trust me, I know this much too well. In last Sunday's Chicago Tribune there was an article about suburbs competing in a nationwide contest to win $100,000 to build a dog park. Oak Forest and Orland park are finalists.
Here's the real question:
Why does it cost $100,000.00 to build a dog park?
If someone could let me know I would greatly appreciate it.
Until next time,
Sara

It's Been A While...
My dear readers,
I've missed you. It's been over a month and I've finally decided to update my blog again. It's kind of a big deal. I have been going about my daily life as one does. I read the Red Eye on my CTA commutes downtown or up North, I read the Chicago Tribune on Sundays (occasionally I write to the editor, though he/she doesn't publish my letters-yet), I run, I get attacked by wildlife, I find pleasures in the simple things, I watch the Colbert Report, I read books, I frequent the library, I go to farmer's markets, etc.
Clearly, not finding a summer job has left me with too much time on my hands. In order to do my part, I've decided that in order to serve society I will inform you about (and in some cases warn) the happenings of the world.
Here are my thoughts from the last month or so:
WARNING.
WARNING.
WARNING.
Jodi Picoult published another book, and this time she co-wrote it with her teenage daughter.
For those of you who don't already know, I hate Jodi. I think her writing is terrible, her characters underdeveloped, and her voice is non-existent. She always picks a controversial issue from the news, offers both sides of the story in a poorly developed "adult" novel, and never actually takes a stance of any kind on the issue. I didn't blindly form this opinion either. I based my opinion off of the 1.5 Jodi Picoult books I've read. In fact, the only thing I can respect about this is her ability to trick the general public with her formula books and make millions. She is published at least once a year. Needless to say, when I heard about her foray into the world of YA lit, I was worried for the general public. But hey, maybe her daughter is a better writer? Well, you've been warned.
I've also been reading articles with warnings in the paper as well. On a serious note, The Chicago Tribune, had an article the other day on a dentist who is suspended because he reused syringes and needles in his practice. His patients are all being contacted now because he exposed them to HIV and a plethora of other diseases. I would have to read into it more, but why is this man only suspended? Also, when you're running your own dental practice, make the investment and buy more syringes and needles. It's such a simple and safe thing to do. Shame on you dentist from Colorado.
On a lighter note....
Miley Cyrus is getting married! OMG?!?!?!
The Red Eye had a brief timeline/history of their relationship-through her Twitter updates. I dream of the day when my relationship can be followed and summed up through tweets.
And in other news, the Olympics are almost here! I'M SO EXCITED TO JUMP ON THE BANDWAGON AND START TALKING ABOUT EVERY SPORT NON-STOP LIKE I'M AN EXPERT! Really, I'm going to do this. If we're friends now I hope we're still friends in three to four weeks.
Funnily enough though, the opening ceremony uniforms for US athletes were designed by Ralph Lauren...and made in China. Obviously people were upset, especially politicians. As reported by the Chicago Tribune, Harry Reid said, "I think they should take all the uniforms, put them in a big pile and burn them. And start all over again."
Haha. I laughed. I thought it was a bit of an overreaction, but who knows? What do you think?
Until next time,
Sara
